Chapter 1476 Hopefully we're overthinking it
Those who had come with him were terrified upon hearing Commander Ye's words and began to shout, "We just came to help seek justice, and we haven't even said anything yet, so why are you going to lock us up?"

The couple who were leading the group exchanged a glance. The woman then sat down on the ground, slapped her thigh, and began to wail, "This is unbearable! My son, a perfectly healthy child, is gone just like that! If you hadn't saved the children in the family compound first, my son wouldn't have died like that!"

Seeing that no one came to persuade her, she became uneasy. She secretly glanced around, and seeing that no one was coming to persuade her, she didn't know whether to put her hand down or raise it, and her expression was quite comical.

At this moment, the officers from the town's police station who had received the report arrived: "Make way, make way, what happened?"

When the police officers arrived, they saw Commander Ye and Division Commander Guan, and quickly went up to shake hands and exchange pleasantries.

After exchanging greetings, one of the older police officers asked, "Someone, please tell me what's going on here?"

Commander Ye was at the scene that day, and he was the one who handled it. He recounted what happened that day: "That's how it was. Those kids in the family compound almost lost their lives trying to save their son."

They showed no remorse whatsoever, and never came to thank us afterwards. Of course, we can all understand that their son was gone, but what they shouldn't have done was turn around and blame it on our soldier who was the last to save him. If everyone acted like them, who would dare to save people in the future?
Not to mention, that child was the furthest from the shore. The two young men who went down to rescue him pulled out the two closest children, and one of them immediately went to their son. After they came up, everyone immediately started the rescue, but in the end they couldn't save him, which was a great pity.

No one wants to see something like this happen, but as parents, your failure to take good care of your child is the root cause of this tragedy. How can you have the nerve to blame the rescuers?

The police officers understood perfectly well that the couple had no way to refute them.

Just as they were about to take the person back to the police station, the village secretary and the brigade leader of Baifu Village rushed over: "Leaders, police officers, we are really sorry. It's our fault for not doing our job well, letting these clueless people come here." As he spoke, the secretary kicked the person involved: "All you do is dream about things all day long. Hurry up and apologize to the leaders."

Seeing that the man didn't move, he said, "What, you want to spend a few days squatting behind the fence?"

The woman was scared now and didn't dare to cause any more trouble. When the man stepped forward and apologized, she quickly got up from the ground and said, "I was wrong too. I shouldn't have come here to make a scene after listening to others."

Next, the Party Secretary and the Village Chief apologized profusely, and only after Commander Guan signaled to him did Commander Ye relent.

The police, seeing that the military wasn't going to pursue the matter further, gave the officers a few words of reprimand before letting them leave.

After the village party secretary and village head of Baifu Village left with their men, Commander Guan looked at the police officers and said, "I think things might not be that simple. The reason I didn't bring it up earlier was because I didn't want to alert them."

At this point, Regiment Commander Ye continued, "The matter was originally resolved by the river that day, but unexpectedly, a few days later, this family came looking for us again. If no one had instigated them, they probably wouldn't have dared to cause trouble for the troops."

The older police officer nodded slightly and said, "We have the same idea. We'll have someone change into plainclothes and go over there to see what's going on. Hopefully, we're just overthinking it."
